Happy Father's Day Weekend

We had a great weekend! Christy came to visit and we stayed so busy. We went to Carthage, Republic, Ozark & Springfield, MO on Saturday. We went to eat at Lambert's for lunch and also visited the Bass Pro Shop. They have done a lot of renevations and will be doing more throuh the summer. One part of the building now looks like you are walking under water in a lake with bass fisherman and duck hunters. I will be excited to go visit again when they have completed. I didn't get any pictures this time, but I will be sure to take some next time. Sunday we went to pick blueberries and had a trip to the lake to cool off.

Wilson's Creek National Battlefield - Hiking to Gibson's Mill which was no longer there. It was very hot and we were very disappointed after our 1 mile trip. Emily also got her very 1st tick which we discovered when we were at the Bass Pro. If you look closely you can see all of our shadows in the flag.

Emily managed to get into the blueberry bucket that Charles left to close to her stroller. We are unsure how many she ate, but she had them all over her and in both hands when we found the thief.
